Well done how Adam and Eve make the tree trunk. The snake and the bitten apple are also great. Worth seeing and original.

“Prof. Gernot Rumpf's Paradiesbrunnen has been on the potato market in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse since 1973. Sculpture of a tree of life with large leaves and various fruits, Adam and Eve are shown in relief on two sides of the trunk. Next to the fountain basin lies the snake with the girl's head and the half-forgotten apple. The tree gives water that flows back to the source from which the tree grows and symbolizes the eternal cycle of life. "

The fountain of paradise, also called Adam and Eve fountain, was built in 1973 on the potato market. In the shadow of the collegiate church, it symbolizes the fall into paradise.
Adam and Eve form the tree trunk from which leaves and fruit grow. The snake and the bitten apple complete this original fountain.
Which is a popular meeting place with nice restaurants, especially in summer.
Vegetables and “Grumbeere” were traded in German potatoes at the potato market in the 19th century.
